[SOLVED] Old Appointment Pop-Up Reminder That Won't Die

Not entirely sure if anybody has seen this but my searches on the forum are coming up with too many false positives and un-answered posts to be helpful.

I use Zimbra Desktop 1.0 (it updates itself, so whatever is latest right now) with my server on (Release 5.0.12_GA_2789.RHEL5_20090126021651 CentOS5 NETWORK edition) which I plan to up to .13 tonight.

Anyway, I had a dentist appointment and a few meetings about 2 weeks ago, and since they have passed EVERY TIME I open Zimbra Desktop, without fail, I get a pop-up telling me that my dentist appointment is over due.

I always click Dismiss on it, and it will go away for the rest of the day until I shut down my computer and start up tomorrow and fire up Zdesktop again. Blam! Those two appointments pop-up again.

To get rid of them, I had to just go to my calendar and erase them from existence which bothers me because I now have no history of what my appointments were should I need to refer back to them.

Anybody know why Zimbra seems to fall in love with certain appointments and never consider them over, even after weeks of hitting Dismiss? All my other appointments never come back after I dismiss them... just these two... very weird.

This has not yet been reported as a widespread issue but I have about 50 users on here so I want to solve this before more people come to me with dead appointments that pester from beyond the grave.

I have a farm of three Zimbra servers. The commercial one is the only one that constantly pops up the Reminder window for appointments that are old.

I notice that it seems to get worse when I check in from the road with the web interface. Then at work I use Zimbra Desktop and it pops up older reminders, but usually different ones. If I go home and run the ZDesktop I get tons of pop-ups for different, ones.

It seems like it is totally random.

Then, on my opensource versions, I never have this issue at all. They are running .13 and have just as many users (about 45 per server).

All I can guess at is that these appointments are being flagged wrong when they are dismissed. There must be some kind of database inconsistency when various clients used to access Zimbra read the appointments from the calendar and remind you about pending / past due events.

Think maybe if enough of us yell at them we could get them to fix it?

We get what we pay for with the free version, but I just wrote a check for well over a grand for this, so maybe I feel justified in being pushy for an answer here.

This weekend I had the pleasure of being reminded that I had to take my cat to the vet every time I opened Zimbra. That appointment was weeks ago but the dismiss button appears to have no effect. Still.
